THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE GREEN UNBOXED LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. NO STAINS OR HANDLING MARKS. THE COLOUR STRETCHES FULLY INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE. THE SILVER TYPEFACE AND LOGOS ARE ALL UNRUBBED AND PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. THERE ARE JUST 1-2 BARELY VISIBLE SMALL SPIDER LINES CLOSE TO THE SPINDLE HOLE SHOWING JUST HOW LITTLE THIS ALBUM HAS BEEN NEAR A TURNTABLE. THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS I BELIEVE WHY THE SLEEVE HAS RETAINED ITS CONDITION, THE LP JUST HASN'T BEEN OUT OF IT MORE THAN A FEW TIMES IN 50 YEARS
THE VINYL
THE VINYL PLAYS WITHOUT ANY DISTORTION TO THE SOUND, MEANING THAT THE COUPLE OF PLAYS THE LP HAS RECEIVED WERE COMPLETED ON A SYSTEM THAT HAD A CORRECTLY TRACKED AND UNWORN STYLUS
THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS CRISP AND CLEAR AS A BELL WITH EVERY NOTE HEARD AS WAS ORIGINALLY INTENDED
THIS LP PLAYS WITHOUT ANY BACKGROUND CRACKLES, OR LOUD CLICKS
NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AT ALL, AND ONLY A COUPLE OF RANDOM SPECKS OF STATIC HEARD IN A LINKING GROOVE OR TWO
AS TRACK ONE COMES TO A CLOSE THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TINY LITTLE TICS HEARD BEHIND THE MUSIC. TWO MORE SLIGHTLY LOUDER ONES IN THE LINKING GROOVE AND THEN NONE AS TRACK TWO STARTS
I AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO GRADE THIS RECORD NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO TO SIDE ONE AND MINT MINUS FOR SIDE TWO IT'S JUST AN INCREDIBLE COPY
PLEASE TAKE A GOOD LISTEN FOR YOURSELF AND YOU BE THE JUDGE AGAINST YOUR PERSONAL STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
YOU KNOW HOW IMPOSSIBLE IT IS TO FIND ANY EARLY ORIGINAL STONES SLEEVE IN COLLECTABLE CONDITION, BUT THIS COPY IS IN VIRTUAL PERFECT CONDITION.
SO STARTING WITH THE FRONT SURFACE. THE FIRST THING TO SAY IS THAT THE LAMINATE GLEAMS LIKE A POLISHED MIRROR. IT HAS NOT LOST ONE IOTA OF IT'S ORIGINAL DAY OF RELEASE SHEEN, AND LOOKS AS GOOD TODAY AS IT DID BACK IN 1969
THERE IS NOT ONE HEAVY CREASE ANYWHERE, AND ONLY ONE TINY LAMINATE LINE CLOSE TO THE SPINE. NONE ALONG THE TOP EDGE, OR THE BOTTOM EDGE. NO THUMB LINES NEAR THE OPENING EDGE EITHER
FINALLY NOT ONE IOTA OF RING WEAR OR EVEN RECORD SHAPE, JUST A SLIVER OF LAMINATE LIFT ALONG THE SPINE
TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE JUST BARE CARD AND VERY VERY HARD TO KEEP PRISTINE. THIS COPY JUST HAS LIGHT WEAR TO THESE DELICATE EDGES
THE SPINE IS ONCE AGAIN FULLY LAMINATED, NO PEEL OR FLAKE, AND EVERY LETTER OF THE BLACK TYPEFACE IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. IT IS TOTALLY FLAT AND UNSQUASHED AND EVEN THE VERY TOP AND BOTTOM TIP ENDS ARE UNRUBBED
THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL RAZOR SHARP FREE FROM ANY THUMB NAIL NICKS OR BURRING
THE REAR SURFACE IS AMAZING, ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE, WITH NO CREASES OR CREASE LINES ANYWHERE, NOT EVEN NEAR THE SPINE OR OTHER PERIMETER EDGES.
OPENING THE GATEFOLD REVEALS A PERFECT INNER SET. THE TWO OUTER PANELS ARE IN PRISTINE CONDITION, SHOWING NO WEAR OR RUBBING TO THE DARK COLOUR
THE ATTACHED BOOKLET IS ALSO FLAT AND UNCREASED. CORRECTLY STAPLED IN FOR THE FIRST PRESS ISSUE. NO CREASES OR WRINKLES ON THE PAGES, JUST A LITTLE ROUGNESS TO THE BOTTOM EDGES
THE ORIGINAL BLUE TEXT AND WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS INCLUDED AND IS IN EXCEPTIONAL UNSPLIT CONDITION, TOTALLY FLAT WITH BARELY A WRINKLE . SOME GLUE AGEING VISIBL;E
THIS MUSEUM QUALITY PIECE OF STONES HISTORY CAN HAVE NO OTHER GRADE THAN MINT MINUS!!!
IT REALLY IS THAT SPECIAL
